The Spider Lily

Bruno Fischer, one of the most prolific and widely read detective story writers of the 1940's and 1950's, has pulled out all the stops in the 70,000 word novel, The Spider Lily. He has put together a yarn that is not only fast-moving and exciting, but based on a theme as timely as tomorrow's headlines. What happens when a returned war hero murders his faithless wife? Will the jury base its findings on the evidence or on its emotions? What will be the effect on the man's family and friends? First published in MAMMOTH MYSTERY in January 1946, it is reprinted in facsimile format for your enjoyment-complete and unabridged.
